Think for yourself what’s most important - then make a game plan how to work less - not more!!
Agreed, and you should not be overworking yourself. It's about prioritizing.
First sleep train the baby
Next realize that you will never get these years back! At least you don’t have to travel, right?
Then set hard limits on your time at work. You are a senior so hopefully the overtime will drive your rating but won’t get you out of the game if you skip it. Tell your leaders that you can’t do any bd or extra stuff for a while. They should be cool.
Once things settle in a couple months get back into the game.
Alternatively, just take a leave for a couple months. I just had someone on my team do this and everyone was super supportive.
Remember in this moment, you have all the power. It’s is hyper competitive for talent. Tell your firm what you want to do and I’ll bet they will accommodate.
Get a new job. What you people put up with is insane. It’s not normal.
I’m not sure where I want to go. Pay / benefits in consulting are the best I’ve ever had. I guess I’ve got a bit of Stockholm syndrome
I left consulting immediately after my first kid was born. It was not fair to the kid and to my family if I continued to work insane hours and travel out of state and stay away from home.

He is 8 months
